The DM-520 features a recording level meter on the LCD screen so that recording levels
can be monitored. If the level is too high and clipping may occur, OVER is displayed
above the level meter. It is recommended to do a test recording before doing a final
recording to set the manual recording levels appropriately.
How is playback volume controlled?
The playback volume is controlled during playback by using the [+] (plus) and [-]
(minus) buttons on the circular pad on the face of the recorder.
the playback volume. Pressing [-] reduces the playback volume.
How is the playback speed controlled?
The playback of files in the DM-520 can be changed to between 50% and 150% of the
default playback speed in increments of 0.05. The tone of the file will be adjusted
digitally without changing the pitch so that the recording sounds natural.
The play speed is changed in the recorder's menu, under Play Speed. The options are:
•
S. Play (Slow Play): x0.50 to x0.95 of normal speed in x0.05 increments
•
F. Play (Fast Play): x1.05 to x2.0 of normal speed in x0.05 increments
S. Play and F. Play are not available while Noise Cancel is enabled. During fast/slow
playback, files will be played in monaural even if they were recorded in stereo.
Can I rename my files when they are displayed on my computer?
Files in the DM-520 should not be renamed when displayed in a computer's file-browsing
software (e.g. My Computer) because the recorder's file-management software may not
be able to find a renamed file.
How does the Zoom Mic option work?
The Zoom Mic menu option employs the DiMAGIC Virtual Microphone™ (DVM) audio
pickup system that allows more dynamic recording by focusing on sound from selectable
directions. It enables expansive stereo recording to high directivity recording using the
DM-520's built-in microphones.
The options available in Zoom Mic are: OFF, Wide, Narrow and Zoom.
The Zoom option has the narrowest angle of reception and records only in monaural.
Because the DVM technology is tailored to the recorder's microphone, Zoom Mic is
incompatible with Olympus accessory microphones and third-party microphones.
How are files erased from the recorder?
Dictation, Audible, Podcast and Music files can be erased from the recorder by selecting
the file and pressing the [ERASE] button. The LCD screen will highlight Cancel. While
Cancel is highlighted, press the [+] button to select File Erase, and then press the
[OK] button. The LCD screen will display the File Erase screen with Cancel highlighted.
Press the [+] button to select Start and then press the [OK] button. The LCD will then
display Erase Done.
To erase all of the files in a folder, use the same procedure, but select Files in Folder
instead of File Erase.
Note: Locked files and files that are set as read-only cannot be erased using this function.
